Abstract
The dopaminergic system integrated by cell groups distributed in several brain regions exerts a modulatory role in brain. Particularly important for this task are the mesencephalic dopamine neurons, which from the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area project to the dorsal striatum and the cortical/subcortical limbic systems, respectively. Dopamine released from these neurons operates mainly via the short distance extrasynaptic volume transmission and activates five different dopaminergic receptor subtypes modulating synaptic GABA and glutamate transmission. To accomplish this task dopaminergic neurons keep mutual modulating interactions with neurons of other neurotransmitter systems, including allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in heteroreceptor complexes. As a result of its modulatory role dopaminergic mechanisms are involved in either the etiology or physiopathology of many brain diseases such as Parkinsońs disease and schizophrenia. The aim of this work is to review some novel and conventional approaches that either have been used or are currently employed to treat these diseases. Particular attention is paid to the approaches derived from the knowledge recently acquired in the realm of receptor-receptor interactions taking place through multiple dopamine heteroreceptor complexes in the plasma membrane. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Honoring Ricardo Miledi - outstanding neuroscientist of XX-XXI centuries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate a possible association between tardive dyskinesia (TD) and CYP1A2 (*1F, -163C>А, rs762551) polymorphism in Russian psychiatric inpatients. METHODS TD was assessed cross-sectionally using the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS). Orofacial and limb-truncal dyskinesia were assessed with AIMS 1-4 and 5-7, respectively. Standard protocols were applied for genotyping. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to compare the mean AIMS scores for each of the genotypic classes. RESULTS A total of 319 Caucasian patients from West Siberia with schizophrenia and 117 healthy volunteers were investigated. No significant differences between the patients and the controls in genotype frequencies were found. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with age, sex, duration of disease, chlorpromazine equivalent (CPZEQ) incorporated as covariates showed that limb-truncal, but not orofacial TD, is associated with CYP1A2 (-163C>, rs762551) polymorphism (F = 3.27, P = 0.039). Patients with the C/C genotype had a higher mean AIMS 5-7 score than those with the A/C or the A/A genotype. CONCLUSIONS Our results support the hypothesis that not only with clozapine, but also with other classical and atypical antipsychotics, smoking may decrease plasma levels; this is most extensively expressed in carriers of the CYP1A2*1F (-163C> A) polymorphism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine prevalence of movement disorders (MDs) such as tardive dyskinesia (TD), parkinsonism or akathisia in an adolescent population with schizophrenia and in relationship to predominantly atypical antipsychotic treatment. METHOD Ninety-three patients (aged 19.6+/-2.2 years) were ascertained in this cross-sectional/retrospective study. 76 patients (81.7%) received atypical, 10 (10.8%) typical antipsychotics and 7 (7.5%) combinations of atypical/typical antipsychotics. MD symptoms were assessed using Tardive Dyskinesia Rating Scale (TDRS), Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), Extrapyramidal Symptom Scale (EPS), Barnes Akathisia Scale (BAS). RESULTS Movement disorder symptoms were found in 37 patients (39.8%) fulfilling strict/subthreshold criteria for TD (5.4/11.8%), parkinsonism (2.2/25.8%) or akathisia (1.1/11.8%), respectively. Patients treated with typical antipsychotics displayed a significantly higher EPS-score (P=0.036) and a tendency towards a higher BAS-score (P=0.061) compared to patients with atypical antipsychotics. Treatment durations with typical/atypical antipsychotics showed trends towards advantages of atypical antipsychotics with regard to parkinsonism/akathisia symptoms (P=0.061; P=0.054), but not with regard to TD symptoms (P=0.003), possibly due to confounding effects. CONCLUSION Under treatment with atypical antipsychotics MD symptoms are less prevalent and less pronounced than under typical antipsychotics. We speculate that the finding of relatively high prevalence rates of subthreshold MD symptoms may be, at least partially, explained by previous or combined therapy with typical antipsychotics.

Abstract
Loss of mitochondrial membrane integrity and consequent release of apoptogenic factors may be involved in mediating striatal neurodegeneration after prolonged treatment with the typical antipsychotic drug haloperidol. Apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), an intramitochondrial protein, may have a large influence on mediating haloperidol-induced striatal neuron destruction. Translocation of this protein from mitochondria to the nucleus promotes cell death independently of the caspase cascade. To examine how AIF may contribute to haloperidol-induced apoptosis, AIF translocation was observed in three haloperidol treatment paradigms. SH-SY5Y cells were treated with both haloperidol and clozapine and examined for AIF immunofluorescence. Immunohistochemistry was also performed on human striatal sections obtained from the Stanley Foundation Neuropathology Consortium and on rat brain sections following 28 days of antipsychotic drug treatment. In the cellular model haloperidol, but not clozapine treatment increased the nuclear AIF immunofluorescent signal and decreased cell viability. Corollary to these findings, striatal sections from patients who had taken haloperidol and rats who were administered haloperidol both had an elevated nuclear AIF signal. The results provide novel evidence implicating the involvement of AIF in haloperidol-associated apoptosis and its relevance to the development of typical antipsychotic drug-related adverse effects such as tardive dyskinesia.

Abstract
A possible involvement of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia (TD) has previously been proposed (reviewed in [Andreassen, O.A., Jorgensen, H.A., 2000. Neurotoxicity associated with neuroleptic-induced oral dyskinesias in rats. Implications for tardive dyskinesia? Progress in Neurobiology 61, 525-541.]). Long-term administration of neuroleptics alters dopaminergic turnover, which results in increased formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This is hypothesized to lead to TD through neuronal toxicity as a consequence of oxidative stress. In the present study, the relationship between TD and a possible functional polymorphism of the human glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) gene (an important antioxidant enzyme) was studied in 68 chronic treatment-refractory patients with schizophrenia. A proline (Pro) to leucine (Leu) substitution at codon 197 (Pro197Leu) in the GPX1 gene was genotyped. No significant difference in total Abnormal Involuntary Movements Scale (AIMS) scores was observed among patients in the three genotype groups. Moreover, no significant differences in genotype or allele frequencies were observed between subjects with and without TD. Our results suggest that the GPX1 gene polymorphism does not confer increased susceptibility to TD, although further studies are warranted before a conclusion can be drawn.

Abstract
This study examines the effects of melatonin on dopaminergic supersensitivity induced by long-term treatment with haloperidol in rats. Enhancements of spontaneous general activity in an open-field and of stereotyped behavior induced by apomorphine after abrupt withdrawal from long-term treatment with haloperidol were used as experimental parameters for dopaminergic supersensitivity. Experiment 1 was conducted to investigate the effects of melatonin on the development of dopaminergic supersensitivity, and experiment 2 was conducted to investigate the effects of melatonin on the development as well as on expression of dopaminergic supersensitivity. Rats of both experiments were long-term treated with saline or haloperidol concomitant to saline or melatonin. In experiment 1 behavioral observations were performed after abrupt withdrawal from long-term treatment. In experiment 2 behavioral observations were performed 1 hour after an acute injection of saline or melatonin, administered after the abrupt withdrawal from long-term treatment. Both behavioral parameters used showed the development of central dopaminergic supersensitivity in rats treated with haloperidol since 24 hours after abrupt withdrawal. Concomitant treatment with melatonin intensified haloperidol-induced dopaminergic supersensitivity, observed 72 hours after withdrawal. Melatonin treatment per se also induced behavioral supersensitivity evaluated by both open-field and stereotyped behaviors, although it was more fugacious than that presented by haloperidol. Acute treatment with melatonin reverted the enhancement of the haloperidol-induced dopaminergic supersensitivity produced by concomitant long-term treatment with melatonin, as well as melatonin-induced dopaminergic supersensitivity per se. Our results support previous evidence of antidopaminergic effects of melatonin and demonstrate that repeated administration of this hormone modifies the plasticity of behaviors mediated by central dopaminergic systems.

Abstract
The effects of risperidone, an atypical neuroleptic, were investigated on two animal models of tardive dyskinesia (TD). The repeated administration of reserpine (1.0mg/kg) or haloperidol (2.0mg/kg) induces orofacial movements in mice, which are very similar to those observed in humans presenting TD. The effects of acute or repeated treatment with several doses of risperidone (0.1; 0.5; 2.0 or 4.0) on the expression and development of orofacial movements in reserpine- and haloperidol-treated male mice were investigated. The results showed that risperidone per se did not induce the development of orofacial movements. In addition, this drug was able to attenuate the expression and the development of reserpine-as well as haloperidol-induced orofacial movements. These results are in line with several clinical studies that suggest not only a lower incidence of TD in schizophrenic patients treated with risperidone, but also an antidyskinetic effect of this drug in patients previously treated with classical neuroleptics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are common, serious problems that impair the quality of life for both patient and caregiver. In order to provide recommendations based upon the best available evidence, a qualitative literature review was performed. METHODS A search of the English language medical literature published between 1966 and 2000 was performed. The quality of the studies was assessed by considering the subjects, trial design, analysis and results. Final recommendations were based upon the quality of available evidence. RESULTS The management of BPSD begins with a thorough assessment to search for underlying causes of behaviour change. Concomitant medical illness should be treated and sensory impairment ameliorated. Nonpharmacological approaches should be instituted prior to medication use. These interventions include music, light, changes in level of stimulation and specific behavioral techniques. Antipsychotics are the best studied pharmacological intervention for agitation and aggression and have demonstrated modest but consistent efficacy. Antidepressants such as trazodone and selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, as well as anticonvulsants such as carbamazepine and valproic acid have also demonstrated efficacy. Benzodiazepines can be used for short-term treatment as p.r.n. agents when necessary. Pharmacotherapy must be monitored closely for both effectiveness and side effects, with consideration of medication withdrawal when appropriate. CONCLUSION The management of BPSD can significantly improve the quality of life for the patient and caregiver. Their assessment and management are essential components of the treatment of dementia.

Abstract
The discovery that clozapine alleviates both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia has resulted in the emergence of newer atypical neuroleptics. Even though they are more expensive than traditional antipsychotics they have distinct and important advantages, which may influence the extent of the patient's rehabilitation and compliance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study examines the effects of long-term continuous exposure to light on dopaminergic supersensitivity induced by repeated treatment with haloperidol in rats. METHODS Spontaneous general activity in an open-field (SGA) and stereotyped behavior induced by apomorphine (SB-APO) or amphetamine (SB-AMP) were used as experimental parameters. Rats were allocated to four groups in each experiment: saline-treated animals kept under a 12-hour light/dark cycle (LD) or 24-hour light/light cycle (LL), and 2 mg/kg haloperidol-treated animals kept under the above cycles. Plasma corticosterone concentration was also measured by radioimmunoassay in saline-treated rats kept under a LD or LL cycle. RESULTS All the behavioral parameters used showed the development of central dopaminergic supersensitivity in rats kept under both cycles. Continuous exposure to light enhanced SGA and SB-AMP in both saline- and haloperidol-treated rats, but did not modify SB-APO. Animals kept under the LL cycle presented an increased plasma corticosterone concentration. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that continuous exposure to light leads to an increase in dopaminergic function in both normal and "supersensitive" rats. This effect seems to be mediated by a presynaptic mechanism possibly involving corticosterone actions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The assess the incidence of tardive dyskinesia (TD) in a sample of adolescents treated with neuroleptic medication and to identify the presence of any risk factors for TD within the affected group. METHOD A retrospective chart review was conducted for 40 cases. The Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) was used to measure side effects from medication at 6-month intervals over 2 years. Drug exposure was converted to chlorpromazine (CPZ) equivalent and the presence of risk factory for TD, such as a diagnosis of affective disorder, medication noncompliance, early age of illness onset, and concomitant antiparkinsonian medication, was also noted. RESULTS Of the 40 cases reviewed, 2 patients (5%) met diagnostic criteria for TD, and another 5 patients (12.5%) showed symptoms of TD. CONCLUSIONS TD is a serious risk at any age. Medication noncompliance, early age of illness onset, and concomitant use of antiparkinsonian medication may increase susceptibility to TD and should be carefully monitored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years there has been a shift to 'community care' and the introduction of several 'atypical' antipsychotic drugs. We report the impact of these changes. METHOD In Nithsdale, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, the population of patients with schizophrenia was identified in 1996. This census replicated a study carried out in 1981. The population with schizophrenia were compared on clinical and social variables. The whereabouts in 1996 of the 1981 population was determined. RESULTS In comparison with the 1981 population, more patients in 1996 had positive, negative and non-schizophrenic symptoms. More showed tardive dyskinesia. Social adjustment had not changed. They had spent less time in hospital; fewer (13%) were living with their parents; and fewer (8%) were employed. By 1996, 35% of the 1981 cohort had died (standardised mortality rate male-154; female-162). CONCLUSIONS The mental health of a community of people with schizophrenia living in a rural area in 1996 was poorer than in 1981.
